Our amazing Blended Learning Packages not only reduce the burden of creating course materials but assist with learner engagement and increase retention by providing flexible learning opportunities for Access to HE Level 3 units in the following unit group areas:

• Biology
• Criminology
• Development Units
• Psychology
• Sociology
• Sport

The Packages are available for use by all Open Awards customers and have been designed to provide learners with a “chunk” of learning that covers:

A subject overview or a specific Learning Outcome.

They have been structured to:

• Introduce the learner to the topic.
• Develop the topic.
• Check the knowledge gained.
• Stretch the learner with further reading.
• Help build study skills.
• Leave the learner working at Level 3.
• Lead the learner back to class.

For learners, each unit comes with a Knowledge Input Tracker (KIT).  This is a companion workbook that follows the online content and requires the learner to record what they have learned and what they specifically need to ask for help with from their tutor.  This is in the form of a Word document so learners can print and complete it by hand or electronically.  In addition, the workbook aids the learner with their note-taking study skills too.  We have also included links to our download resource bank.

For tutors, we provide a Tutor Guide, which leads through setting up the learning packages (including system requirements) to reviewing the download content.  So that you can understand how the online content can fit in with further classroom study and preparation for assignments.  It contains a lesson plan and PowerPoint so that you can feel confident introducing the Packages to your learners.  You can use as much or as little of the online Packages as you like.

If you are interested in these Packages for your learners, why not ask for a free demonstration copy.  Please contact our team at Open Awards on 0151 494 2072 or email enquires@openawards.org.uk or click the ‘Enquire Now’ button above and fill in the form.
